I am offering to this group first. If no one is interested then I will offer to the quiltboard community as I know many repurpose shirts for quilting. I can fill a medium flat rate box for postage of $12.65. Let me know.

I do this, but I have plenty! It's so nice of you to offer. If no one takes you up on this, you could always cut them up and make some simple quilts for charity. They make the nicest, coziest quilts. One of our favorite quilts here at home is a shirt quilt I made. This is it while it was just a top:

A big thanks - now I opened the envelopes to get your names but no opening the candy until the big day -then I'll gorge myself!!!

Sewbizgirl love the quilt. I love plaids and have several plaid blouses and plaid wool skirts but I am not motivated to quilt with shirtings. I love many of the shirting quilts I see and would probably enjoy one if I had it but I lack the visual interest needed to make a shirting quilt.

Because I know so many quilters make shirting quilts when I go to estate sales, if I can grab a stash full for cheap I do and pass them along.
